Summary: Logan's initiation onto the PCA Varsity basketball team is something he thinks will be easy. Until he finds out the the girl he has to make fall for him is none other than his best friend's girlfriend. Will Logan risk it all just to be on the team? Maybe, because after all: breaking hearts is nothing new to him.

Heartbreaker

Chapter One: The Challenge

Logan Reese woke up grinning. It was another fabulous day in the life of him. Well, actually, everyday was fabulous for him as long as he was still rich and hot. As he slowly pulled himself out of bed he looked over at his calender. It was October 3rd, exactly one month since school started again and the day of Varsity basketball tryouts.

Life at PCA for the past month was nothing like it had been the past few years. September 3rd marked a new chapter in his life, as cheesy as it sounded. No longer was he just a student at the lower classman PCA, he was now in the high school portion. His dorm was miles across campus from his old one but he was still sharing a room with Chase and Michael, which was good being that they were two of the few guys who were friends with him. It wasn't his fault if guys hated him simply because all the girls, including their very own girlfriends, wanted him. No one could control how hot and desirable they were.

Logan stumbled into the bathroom to brush his teeth as he thought things over some more, something very odd for him. In starting PCA's high school things were very different. No longer could he count on his looks and last name alone to get what he wanted. From now on, whatever the Seniors said or did was rule. Anyone that messed with that...well, they most commonly transferred schools. A sure way to gain popularity was through joining a sports team. Logan's natural ability to play basketball came in very handy for that. He briefly wondered why he had to try out at all, he was the star player of the team last year as well as their MVP. The Seniors didn't care about that though.

If this was last year he would have blew it off and handed the coach a few 20's to get him on the team but now he couldn't risk the spot, especially because a coach didn't host tryouts. If buying his way in somehow backfired he wouldn't make it on the team, or any for that matter. Not being on a team was not an option. Not being on a team gave the rest of the school liscense to mock you for the rest of the year, it made you an outcast. If there was one thing Logan wasn't, it was an outcast.

After he finished his whole morning routine, Logan heard his roommates just start to get up. "Why hello Sleeping Beauties," he said sarcastically.

"You think I'm a Sleeping Beauty? Personally, I always thought I was more of a Cinderella," Chase joked.

"Can I be Thumbelina!" Michael exclaimed a little too loudly. The other two boys shot him odd looks. "What?"

They shrugged it off and Logan poured himself some cereal while the other boys washed up. His mind was still racing around at the thought of what today would bring. He would never ever admit it to anyone but he was actually nervous. His friends would get a real kick out of that. The Logan Reese scared of a tryout for the sport he had played his whole life, no one would ever let him live it down.

Seven hours later Logan was released from his last class of the day. He quickly made his way over to the basketball courts. When he got there he winked at several cheerleaders as they held their own tryouts across from his. Sauntering over like he owned the place, Logan noticed the other freshman there. Most were scrawny and he grinned as he figured he was sure to get a spot.

"Hey guys, my name's Jake and I'm a senior," a guy who just screamed the cliche of tall, dark and handsome said. "Now if any of you aren't here to try out for basketball then get the hell out of here and buy yourself a clue at the school store."

Logan smirked as he saw some kids cower under the senior's intense gaze. His chances were looking better by the minute.

"Okay then. First things first, I'm going to introduce you to the team. Standing behind me is Dave, Jeff, Aaron, Mike, Joe, Brad, James and Leo." He said pointing to each member individually. "Today we're only looking for two positions: Point Guard and Small Forward.Now I'm going to call out names from my list. I have your stats from last year and if I deam it necessary you will have to play one-on-one against either me or someone on the team. First up is Bill E."

Logan was called up fourth and they pulled him off to the side like they had to the others before him.

"Logan Reese. I've heard about you. Pretty impressive stats. MVP, not bad. I think your record pretty much speaks for itself. So what position do you play?""

"All of them."

"All?" Jake asked skeptically.

"Yep. I can't help it if I'm amazing."

"Cut the crap Reese, just pick a position."

"Point Guard."

"Thank you. Now to make it on the team you have to do something first."

"Something? Like what?"

"Think of it as hazing, only less extreme. And it's different every year. We challenge the new player but if they can't do this certain thing then the next guy in line gets the position."

"So what do I have to do?"

"Well in order to make these challenges difficult, but not too difficult, we test their supposed 'abilities'. Last year Will Scott tried out for the team. He was known around PCA for being the best wakeboarder for his age. So the seniors looked up a pro 15 year old wakeboarder and tested him. He, of course, lost and they replaced him. But since we like you, your challenge will be less severe. Now we hear you're quite the ladies man. All you have to do is get the girl of our choice to fall for you in a month."

"A month?" Logan scoffed, "I don't even need a week."

"Hey hey, don't act so haughty. We haven't picked her yet."

"Please, no girl can resist my charm. So who is she?"

Jake looked across the court to the cheerleaders. His eyes scanned the group of girls and he smirked as he found the perfect one. "Her," he said pointing.

Logan followed his finger to a girl who's back was turned towards them. "A blonde? Piece of cake." But as the girl turned around he groaned at the sight of her.

"Do you know her?" Jake asked with his smirk still intact.

"Yeah. That's my roommate's girlfriend, Zoey Brooks."

"Girlfriend, huh? Interesting. Guess this won't be as easy as you thought."

"Wait. You're not seriously telling me I still have to go through with this-- not with her."

"Sorry buddy. You accepted the challenge. I said you had to make a girl fall for you, I didn't say she had to be single."

"But she's dating my roommate!"

"Reese, from what I hear breaking hearts is what your good at. Roommates can be replaced. If you wanna be something at this school then this is what you need. This isn't junior high PCA, you're in the big leagues now. But hey, if you want out Teddy Foreman is just looking to take your position. All you gotta do is tell me what you want."

Logan sighed. "All right, I'll do it."

"Good, you've got until the big Halloween dance. You prove to us that you got her and you're in, no questions asked."

"No problem."

If anybody had walked by in that moment they would've seen a completely cool and comfortable Logan Reese. But inside he was feeling the exact opposite. There was this sinking feeling deep inside of him and a voice that was screaming at him to back down. Sure he looked completely comfortable and cool, because that's all he would ever let anyone see.

Oh and just so you know, I don't know anything about Varsity basketball tryouts. Actually, I don't know anything about basketball in general. I barely even know what a point guard does. So if some of the stuff I wrote about didn't make sense, I'm sorry. : )
